£201 million jackpot on the Euromillions tonight!

[Cousin Jack]

I have a similar plan. I want a Buccaneer for static display. In fact I just want lots of land to put a load of cold war British jets on... or I might try and buy Newark Air Museum.

The Swiss kept Vampires in service will into the 80's iirc.

And Hunters far beyond that.

And Hunters far beyond that.

Hunters still flying here with a defense contractor. Sometimes there are 3 buzzing around.

The best sounding jet aircraft ever made.
Also the aircraft that caused my mother to fall off her bicycle, whereas a C130 pushed me off a bicycle.

I do include the Vulcan, growing up near RAF Wattisham means I heard lots of Cold War jets, Hunter has a lovely howl to it.

I grew up next to RAF Finningley.

Best (military) Air Show in Europe (during the 80/90's).

The septic's once tried to land a KC135 on my house. That made a lot of noise when it realised it was about to land on the highstreet rather than the runway.

[Taipan]

I won!

ISTR the generic howl of a diving aircraft in Thunderbirds is actually a Hunter. That's what my Dad always told me anyway.

I 'invested' yesterday, just a random thing as I was at the kiosk getting a Costa cup* Didn't realise it's £2.50 a go! until they told me how much I had to pay. If I've won I may go quiet for a while.

* There's a machine (which actually produces a better coffee than the current barista in the Costa shop). You used to get a coffee at the machine and pay at the kiosk. Sounds like lots just walked out the door. They've also put razor blades and spirits in a locked cabinet that you have to get someone to open. Strange times.

[Count Steer]

Woohoo!




£2.80

I got blown off my bike by a Supermarine Scimitar when he aborted a landing at Culdrose.

I've won 3 times in the last week!
£140, £4.20 and £2.80 - don't think I'll be retiring yet though.

They even lock up the socks & underoos at my local Wally World. High theft item thanks to the homeless
